Wake up your body:
Take a few steps out of bed, jump a little, take a deep breath, or even scan a QR code in your living room (the farther you hide it, the better!).

### 1/5 — Bug

*2026-08-01*

Ideia is awesome, but there is a bug, when you snooze the alarm, it doesn’t come back and stays there until you open the app.

### 2/5 — Sprache lässt leider nicht ändern. Input error

*2026-07-19*

Unfortunately, the language cannot be changed and the error message Input error always appears when typing in the task. In the focus settings you can also not find the app to add it as an exception which is important if sleep mode should be activated that the app rings.

### 5/5 — alarm

*2026-06-14*

food

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-05-16*

The alarm never triggers until I open the app. I can open the app at 10pm and the alarm I set for 5am will go off asking me to complete the tasks. I have tried emailing the email address provided in the contact us section of the app with no response,  which is upsetting because I paid for the lifetime option of the app for something that isn’t even working.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback — and sorry about the issue.

In some cases, this may be related to system settings on Apple devices, such as Background App Refresh being disabled, Low Power Mode, or other system restrictions that can prevent the alarm from triggering properly.

We recommend checking these settings first and making sure the app has full background permissions enabled.

Also, we’ll look into the email issue you mentioned on our side, as we want to make sure support requests are being received properly.

### 2/5 — Like the idea but doesn’t work

*2026-05-11*

I like the idea of this app but it doesn’t work. The alarm never goes off until I manually open the app.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your detailed feedback and support. We’re sorry for the issue. In some cases, this may be related to system settings, such as Background App Refresh being disabled, Low Power Mode, or other system restrictions that can prevent the alarm from triggering properly. We recommend checking these settings first to ensure MaxAlarm has full background permission. If the problem persists, please feel free to email us and we will help further.

### 3/5 — Misleading

*2026-04-21*

Please make this app compatible with my Apple Watch. It was misleading when I downloaded it from a recommendation in one of my watch apps. I was hoping my wrist would also receive the alarm notifications and I could complete the tasks on my watch.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and sorry for the confusion.
At the moment, MaxAlarm does not fully support completing tasks directly on Apple Watch, which may have caused misunderstanding based on how it was recommended or presented.
We understand this is an important expectation and we are actively exploring better Apple Watch support in future updates.

### 1/5 — 跟描述不符

*2026-02-25*

不好用

**Developer response:** 你好，很抱歉这次没有达到你的预期，也感谢你的反馈。
我们会持续优化产品体验，让功能和使用效果更加稳定和清晰。
如果你愿意，也可以具体告诉我们哪里不符合预期，我们会认真记录并改进。谢谢你的支持。

### 2/5 — Waste Of Time

*2026-02-12*

I love PeakWatch and this app was recommended in the app so I thought I’d give it a try. I paid the 5,99 yearly ( stupidly ) and thought at the very least it would have some Apple Watch function but alas.. there was ZERO. To be honest what you get with Pro is not worth the money, a few chicken and dog sounds and that’s about it. Don’t waste your money and use the native Sleep Alarm in iOS. If this had some watch features or complications I might have gave it a bit of a chance. As it stands it’s a waste of money. Don’t do what I did ! Have a burger or a pint instead.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for sharing your honest feedback and we’re really sorry for the disappointment.
We understand your expectation around Apple Watch features, especially since the app may have been discovered through related recommendations. At the moment, MaxAlarm does not yet include Apple Watch functionality or complications, which we realize is an important expectation for many users.
We also hear your concern about the value of Pro — we’re actively working on improving the product experience and adding more meaningful features.
Your feedback is very valuable to us, and we’re sorry again that the current experience didn’t meet your expectations.

### 3/5 — 闹钟无法正常使用

*2026-02-06*

为什么设置任务闹钟之后它只会响，屏幕主页只有关闭闹钟，当我解锁iPad进入APP之后，任务闹钟才会被触发，已经开通了终身会员，而且App的键盘和iPad不能适用

**Developer response:** 你好，非常抱歉给你带来了不好的体验，也感谢你的详细反馈。

你提到的闹钟/任务未正常触发问题，通常可能与系统权限有关，例如：后台 App 刷新是否开启、是否开启低电量模式、以及系统对后台运行的限制等，这些都可能影响闹钟的正常触发。建议你先检查这些设置，确保 MaxAlarm 拥有完整的后台运行权限。

关于键盘适配问题，目前仅支持iPhone。我们会提交产品考虑尽快适配更多型号。

如果在确认设置后问题仍然存在，欢迎随时通过邮件联系我们，我们会帮你进一步排查具体原因并协助解决。

感谢你的理解与支持，我们也在持续优化稳定性体验。

### 1/5 — 设置了第二天不触发

*2026-02-04*

晚上设置好闹钟后台刷新也设置第二天不触发

**Developer response:** 你好，非常抱歉给你带来了不好的体验，也感谢你的详细反馈。 你提到的闹钟/任务未正常触发问题，通常可能与系统权限有关，例如：后台 App 刷新是否开启、是否开启低电量模式、以及系统对后台运行的限制等，这些都可能影响闹钟的正常触发。建议你先检查这些设置，确保 MaxAlarm 拥有完整的后台运行权限。  如果在确认设置后问题仍然存在，欢迎随时通过邮件联系我们，我们会帮你进一步排查具体原因并协助解决。
